Tesco bank holiday opening hours are changing for Monday, May 25, 2026, as major UK supermarkets adjust trading times for the late May bank holiday. For shoppers planning a long-weekend trip, the key question is which stores will open when.
Aldi’s main stores will trade from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., while Asda will match those hours. Morrisons said the vast majority of its large-format stores across England and Wales will open at 7:00 a.m. and close at 8:00 p.m.
Tesco May 25 schedules
Tesco is among the major chains adjusting hours for the holiday, alongside Aldi, Asda and Morrisons. Corporate communications directors have urged consumers to verify localized schedules through online portals, so customers heading out on May 25 need to check the store they plan to use rather than rely on a single national timetable.
That advice fits the way the holiday is being handled across the sector. Aldi and Asda are set to run on the same 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. window at primary locations, but Asda Express branches will largely keep their standard 24-hour operational status, creating a split between main stores and convenience outlets.
Morrisons England Wales hours
Morrisons’ schedule is broader at the start of the day, with most large-format stores in England and Wales opening at 7:00 a.m. The later closing time of 8:00 p.m. still leaves a narrower shopping window than a normal day for many customers, especially those who plan to shop later in the evening.
The practical step for shoppers is simple: check the local listing before leaving home. With bank holiday hours varying by chain and by branch, the safest option is to confirm the store’s own schedule online before a trip on Monday, May 25, 2026.
